Paperback: Did Pope Pius XII Help The Jews? (2007) offers a summary of the life of the 262nd successor of Saint Peter, His Holiness Pope Pius XII. It helps us to understand why his contemporaries were convinced that the wartime Pontiff was a man of faith and of charity.
While examining the often-repeated arguments both for and against Pope Pius XII, the book reveals his holiness, courage, goodness, intelligence and concern for all humanity.
It summarizes for the reader the important elements of his life, well-illustrated in the sentiments contained in his "Ten Commandments for Peace", which are a legacy for all to follow as a way of life.
This book is affectionately dedicated to His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI.
